Audiological Characteristics in Vestibular Schwannoma Patients

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Vestibular schwannoma (VS) is a benign tumor that originates from the Schwann cells of the vestibular nerve sheath in the internal auditory canal. This retrospective study collected data from patients with VS who underwent surgical treatment to identify their demographic characteristics and audiometric features.

SLC26A4 targeted to the endolymphatic sac rescues hearing and balance in Slc26a4 mutant mice.

PLoS Genetics, 2013
Mutations of SLC26A4 are a common cause of human hearing loss associated with enlargement of the vestibular aqueduct. SLC26A4 encodes pendrin, an anion exchanger expressed in a variety of epithelial cells in the cochlea, the vestibular labyrinth and the ...

The tympanic covering layer contributes to basilar membrane elasticity potentially influencing human frequency resolution and speech perception

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
In this study we show for the first time that the human basilar membrane contains elastin produced by the so‐called tympanic covering layer. It is believed to play an important functional role in human cochlear tuning, particularly low frequencies linked to our remarkable speech and music perception.

Large endolymphatic sac anomaly [PDF]

Pediatric Radiology, 2010
A 31-month-old girl presented with sensorineural hearing loss. Brain MRI demonstrated enlargement of the endolymphatic sacs bilaterally on T2-W images (Fig. 1) and reformatted image on the left side (Fig. 2, white arrow). The remaining inner ear structures were unremarkable. The endolymphatic sac sits at the posterior aspect of the petrous bone.

Disrupted Vestibular Nuclei Neuron Development in a Chick Model for Congenital Vestibular Disorders

Developmental Neurobiology, Volume 86, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Children with syndromic, congenital vestibular disorders (CVDs) form a sac‐like inner ear with missing or truncated semicircular canals and experience delayed motor development with lifelong challenges to maintain posture and balance. How the abnormal inner ear affects downstream central vestibular neural circuitry has not been investigated ...

Estimation and rapid identification of later stages during embryonic development of the oviparous lizard Sceloporus aeneus (Squamata: Phrynosomatidae)

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 6, Page 1583-1598, June 2026.
Abstract Stages of embryonic development for reptiles have been presented in tables that may include all or part of embryonic development. When oviposition occurs in some lizards, embryos are already in the later stages of development; likewise, the size of the eggs increases as incubation time progresses.

Advances in the Treatment of Sensorineural Hearing Loss: From Traditional Therapies to Stem Cell and Gene Therapies

Advanced Sensor Research, Volume 5, Issue 4, April 2026.
Sensorineural hearing loss (SNHL) occurs in 1.5 billion globally, primary driven by damage of cochlear hair cells and spiral ganglion neurons. This review systematically examines current therapeutic strategies for sensorineural hearing loss, including traditional drug and physical therapies as well as emerging stem cell and gene therapies, providing a ...
